San Francisco police say a concert-goer who fell to his death from the upper level of a basketball arena is believed to have “leapt from an elevated area of the arena,” causing his death.

“Immediately before the victim leapt, he did not appear to have any physical contact with any person or barrier/railing,”

The 47-year-old man died.

Nearly an hour later at 9:45 p.m., on-duty officers were alerted to another man who had fallen. He was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries, as was a man he fell on. Police have not provided any details about what caused that incident.

A spokesperson for the venue and the Warriors told the San Francisco Chronicle that the arena was safe.

Is it fell or leaped. If he leaped, it was stupidcide.

Trying to bit my tongue not to make an insensitive joke about how that is a natural reaction to having to sit through a whole Phish concert.

It’s a Phish concert, so I would blame LSD, weed, and booze.

He decided death was better than listening to a constant Phish jam.
